A2 Milk Company Ltd (ASX: A2M)
According to a note out of Citi, its analysts have upgraded this infant formula company's shares to a buy rating with an improved price target of $4.81. This follows an update at A2 Milk's annual general meeting, which revealed an unexpected reiteration of its FY 2024 earnings guidance.

Outside this, the broker highlights that the company's shares trade at a sizeable discount to historical multiples. The A2 Milk share price is trading at $4.01 today.
Altium Limited (ASX: ALU)

The Altium share price is fetching $44.47 on Friday.
